The subject of safety and security of Human Resource (HR) of corporate organizations is a major concern due to the sudden rise in crimes, accidents and various hazards associated with workplaces and the society in recent times. This paper proposes a system for monitoring HR activities and movements in the workplace in real time. The proposed system employs the use of Internet of Things (IoT) wearable devices which are made up of Arduino Uno microcontroller, wireless Radio Frequency Sensors (RFS), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags/readers and Global Positioning System (GPS) modules. The system aims at tracking, locating and keeping the log of the activities and movements of employees at any instant thereby providing information required by employers and security agencies to ensure timely intervention in case of emergency and urgent evacuation. 

The biggest problems of the Indian railways are accidents and more delay time. The Internet of Things (IOT) can be used to reduce the effect of above two problems. Many accidents occur because of un-attended railway gates, over speed and improper signaling. The information of trains is not so clear to the railway stations, which leads to delay in trains. In this paper some solutions are proposed, to make the railways better, like automatic gate control, train tracking using Global Positioning System (GPS) and track switching. This can be achieved by IOT along with database management system (DBMS) and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. Each train is tracked using RFID and information is updated into the DBMS.

Nowadays, the complaints of air passengers about mishandling of luggage are highly noticeable, where the number of passengers are on the increased. In this respect, several research works have been conducted using different technologies, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Global Positioning System (GPS), Global System for Mobile Communication (GPS), mobile applications, smart watches and QR code. However, none of them safely and effectively considers reclaiming passengers' belongings from the airport baggage handling carousel without the need for human intervention, which in turn increases the number of mishandled bags. Therefore, in this paper we propose a new Airport Luggage Tracker System (ALTS) in order to provide a reliable solution compared with the research works found in the literature. A prototype system based on the proposed design is successfully implemented and tested using Arduino UNO, RFID technology and website application (check-in and check-out at departure lounge and arrival lounge, respectively). Keywords— radio frequency identification (RFID), tracking system (TS), airport luggage tracker system (ALTS).

Abstract- At this time motorcycle theft cases are still often occur plus the increasing use of motorcycle vehicles, motorcycle theft is caused by the lack of a security system on the ignition which only uses keys and key covers, where security systems like this have been understood mostly motorcycle thieves, the necessity of a motorcycle safety system is needed. To overcome this, a Motorcycle Safety System was made using Arduno-based GPS and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) to prevent and facilitate the recovery of stolen motor vehicles. The results of this study, the system is made using the Global Positioning System (GPS) as a tool to detect the location of motorcycles, and smart key contacts are added using RFID, SMS gateway and DC-DC Converter.

Penelitian ini membahas kelayakan teknologi Radio Frequensi Identification (RFID) untuk memantau distribusi daging ayam dari perusahaan rumah potong ayam (RPA) ke konsumen perusahaan pengolah daging ayam. Tujuan penelitian ini menguji kelayakan teknoekonomi sistem traceability berbasis RFID meliputi tiga aspek yaitu teknologi, pemasaran, dan finansial. Metode analisis teknologi adalah pemantauan posisi dengan Global Positioning System (GPS), suhu, dan kelembaban box mobil selama distribusi. Analisis teknoekonomi implementasi aplikasi RFID meliputi pemasaran dan kelayakan finasial NPV, IRR, B/C Ratio, dan PP. Berdasar aspek teknologi, posisi mobil selama distribusi dapat dipantau dengan tepat dengan GPS yang terintegrasi aplikasi RFID. Aplikasi juga secara real time akurat memantau suhu dan kelembaban box mobil sehingga dapat mempertahankan kualitas daging selama distribusi. Aspek pemasaran terdapat target pasar 13 RPA di Jawa Timur. Aplikasi RFID akan dijual ke perusahaan RPA dengan harga Rp. 7.296.860 per unit dan layanan jasa operasional alat dan sistem Rp.510.780 per unit per bulan. Aspek finansial menunjukkan nilai NPV adalah Rp.259.996.894, IRR sebesar 32,14 %, nilai B/C Ratio 2,27%, PP 3 tahun 2 bulan. Secara umum, hasil analisis teknoekonomi aplikasi RFID pada distribusi daging ayam layak direalisasikan.

The authors have been investigating novel ways to apply technology to enhance response to fast-paced, complex, hazardous materials (HAZMAT) incidents. Although there are many uses of Global Positioning System, Radio Frequency Identification, simple radio frequency transmitter/sensor devices, and multitouch display technologies, these technologies have only made their way into the HAZMAT community in limited ways. Based on an investigation of the technology needs of HAZMAT responders, the authors developed an approach to combine these technologies to address the observed safety, situation awareness, and efficiency shortfalls. This article describes the proposed approach and provides the results of an investigation into its acceptance and likely utility. During lowfidelity prototype-based user tests and structured interviews, certified HAZMAT responders gave high scores to the usefulness of the proposed functionality and its likely helpfulness in maintaining safety

Internet of Things is one of the most important components of modern technological systems. It allows the real time synchronization and connectivity of devices with each other and with the rest of the world. The radio frequency identification system is used as node identification mechanism in the Internet of Thing networks. Since Internet of Things involve wireless channel for communication that is open for all types of malicious adversaries, therefore many security protocols have been proposed to ensure encryption over wireless channel. To reduce the overall cost of radio frequency identification enabled Internet of Thing network security, the researchers use simple bitwise logical operations such as XOR, AND, OR, and Rot and have proposed many ultralightweight mutual authentication protocols. However, almost all the previously proposed protocols were later found to be vulnerable against several attack models. Recently, a new ultralightweight mutual authentication protocol has been proposed which involves only XOR and Rotation functions in its design and claimed to be robust against all possible attack models. In this article, we have performed cryptanalysis of this recently proposed ultralightweight mutual authentication protocol and found many pitfalls and vulnerabilities in the protocol design. We have exploited weak structure of the protocol messages and proposed three attacks against the said protocol: one desynchronization and two full disclosure attacks.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is one of the crucial enabling technologies for the Internet of Things (IoT). This is leading to a continuous augmentation of RFID technologies, in terms of sensing capabilities, energetic autonomy, usability, and cost affordability, and this special issue proposes an overview on such a challenging scenario. The proposed results, in terms of cost reduction, miniaturization, and compatibility with complex systems and technologies, as well as the identification of the relevant criticalities, also pave the way to future steps being taken that go beyond the current IoT.
